At the first liquor store I entered in Matsudo
I got my first sake
I had Yuki no Mayuya, Tsuchida, and Ryu-ryoku.
I went home with new sake to enjoy as if I was exploring a new place.
The lid flew off when I opened the seal 🫢.
Slightly effervescent low-alcohol sake
Tropical fruitiness.
It's got a natural sweetness to it.
Maybe mango 🥭.
I'm pretty sure I've seen comments like that in the store.
It's like champagne.
A new exploration was a great success!
It's honestly delicious 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby! We like the big liquor stores in Tokyo, but we also want to support local stores ❣️ We took the bus home with our sake 😆.
My car will be here shortly and I want to visit the liquor stores for good sake!
My wife gave me this bottle for Father's Day.
The aroma is fresh, muscat-like ginjo aroma.
In the mouth, sweetness and acidity spread softly from the gentle mouthfeel. In the mid-palate, a slight spiciness emerges, and finally it disappears without a trace.
There is no gassiness, and overall, this wine is very fruity and easy to drink.
It was like a cool white wine, a new aspect of sake.
The bottle mouth is so tight (see photo) that I was wary of how much it would spill. I was a bit wary, but I was able to open the bottle without any problems.
It is sweet, sour, carbonated, citrusy, and with a low Alc of 10%, perfect for this season. Tonight we had a rich meat dish, so the wash effect made the drink and the meal go down well.
Tainai Kogen Beer, which we ordered from Murakami, is going out of business this month, so we were able to experience the gentle flavor of Niigata Koshihikari just in time.
Hi screaming butterfly, ☀️
I've had this before and it's citrus dry, sizzling and delicious 😆 10 degrees is almost beer, so it's great guilt free 🥳(personal opinion 🤣).
Where did you buy it...? I didn't buy it at the co-op. I don't remember much, and it's not a warehouse I'm used to buying from, so I guess I bought it as a choice, because it looked reasonable and fruity after comparing them.
I must have bought it within a year... memory ......
It tasted exactly as described on the back, so the brewery's linguistic skills are amazing.
Purchased at a different liquor store than usual.
It was interesting to see the different brands they carry from the usual liquor store.
The aroma is calm, not too sweet, and after drinking it, you can taste an apple-like aroma.
It has a sour taste as well as a sweet taste, which may be good for those who like sour sake.
It is also inexpensive and a cosy sake.
Alcohol 14%.
Rice polishing ratio 50%.
Color Colorless
Tasting at Hanshin Department Store event.
Echigo Tsurukame booth.
I was curious about the sake sold in aluminum cans, which I was not familiar with, so I tasted it. I also tasted other sake.
◉Echigo Tsurukame wine yeast brewed Junmai Ginjo in aluminum cans.
The sake is light and refreshing with an alcohol content of 10%. It has a slightly winey and slightly fruity taste. Very easy to drink. I wonder if it is a Junmai Ginjo brewed with wine yeast and then watered down. I don't know.
Echigo Tsurukame Junmai Daiginjo with wine yeast.
Apparently it was introduced on Lavit two years ago.
It is like a light wine, with a light acidity that makes it easy to drink.
Echigo Tsurukame Komorebi Junmai White Koji
The white malted rice has a strong acidity and a strong sour taste.
I bought an aluminum can and went home. I bought an aluminum can to take home when I was short of something to drink or when I only had a little today.
Tonight, since this is my second day back from sickness, I choose this low-alcohol drink 💁.
Koshitai death⭐︎star
Orikarami nama sake 2024BY✨🪐.
This is a new addition to Echigo-Tsurukame's Modern Challenge lineup. This time, too, a bottle overflowing with love for STAR WARS.
Low alcohol, sparkling, and draft sake... I'm excited about my favorite meta information.
The bottle was opened quietly as it was very cold ✅ Pouring it into the sake cup, there is a bit of nigori (soot) and bubbles 🤗.
The aroma is fresh and greeful, with a citrusy bitter acidity of lemon. The taste is characterized by stimulating gas and acidity, and the refreshing grefle sweet and sourness and bitterness in the aftertaste fades away as it goes down your throat comfortably. It's like drinking an elegant grefleur sour and I can't wait to try it again 👹😋😋😋😋😋😋.
The power of death_⭐︎star is still terrifying... 🤣
Sake rice Yamae Nishiki
Polishing 60
ALC 14 degrees
Refreshing fruity aroma.
The taste is refreshing with a good balance of sourness and sweetness.
It has a slight tingling sensation.
A perfect food sake that goes well with anything ^ ^.
Thank you for the food and drink!
I have a wide range of "hits" and "misses" when it comes to Echigo sake, which is a sign of the growing diversity of Echigo sake.
Jacket value ... 8/10
The label is a strip of paper, which makes it more shiny.
Ki ... 11/20
The acidity is almost odorless, but the acidity is a quick acidity attack, like soda water, which may give the impression of being "sour" to some people.
Sei... 12/20
The sourness is still there, but the taste buds are already smelling the sublimated smell of persimmon in December, which is acceptable because it does not smell putrid.
Turns out... 12/20
The acidity covers both ends of the tongue, and the umami bursts into fullness, but it's basically sour...
Conclusion ... 15/20
It is sour to the end, and I like the fact that it smells of sublimation, but it is neither like plum wine nor apricot wine.
Cost performance... 6/10
The price was 1,748 yen, which is acceptable for a new drinker.
The image is that of Yonotori.

I tend to judge acidic wines and ripe ones as austere, but as the temperature rises, the contrast between acidity and sweetness becomes clearer and more voluminous... I recommend room temperature.
I like the vibrancy of the acidity.
Mature citrus scent.
The label gives the impression of grapefruit. As the label says, it has a strong acidity with a bitter taste and gas, making it refreshing to drink.
It is 11 degrees, so it can be drunk on the rocks when it is hot, but I think it will run out soon.
It is one of my favorite brands from Niigata.
The aroma is sweet tangerine 🍊.
When you drink it, it has a richness like mandarin oranges and honey, with a hint of sourness. It has a richness like a noble sake, perhaps because it has been aged for a while.
But it's not too strong and has a nice sharpness to it, so it goes down smoothly.
It still has a slight tangy taste even after a few days. It may be more tangy than tangy.
There is a momentary burst of sweetness, but it dissipates in an instant and flows smoothly. The clarity and drinking comfort is consistent.
The kasumi series with its shwashy orikara flavor was delicious, but this one, which is more on the low-alcoholic side but still has a strong flavor, was also delicious.
Hello Kotaro 😊
The richness like mandarin oranges and honey, sounds delicious 🤤I had another Echigo-Tsurukame the other day and it had a lemon🍋 feel.
It's amazing how many different flavors you can get out of it: ☺️
Hi Maru, ☀️
I was reading about Maru-san's Echigo Tsurukame and thought it looked sour 😝🍋😁I wonder if the Echigo series is a modern low-alcohol type? The difference in taste is also interesting ♬ if you have a chance 🙌
